We handle returns on a case-by-case basis with the ultimate goal of making our customers happy. We stand behind our goods and services, and want customers to be satisfied with them. We’ll always do our best to take care of customers—our philosophy is to deal with them fairly and reasonably. We have long believed that when we treat our customers fairly, they in turn are fair with us. We apply refunds to the tender with which returned items were purchased. If we choose to provide a refund and no record of sale is available, we’ll ask for personal identification and a refund will be provided at the current price on a NOVA Mapo Gift Card.

How are my refunds credited?
All refunds with a sales receipt will be credited to the purchaser’s original form of payment, including gift cards (so be sure to keep your gift cards, even if they have a $0 balance). We offer gift receipts to customers when they purchase gifts. When returning an item with a gift receipt, the refund may be credited to either the original form of payment or a NOVA Mapo gift card. If we choose to provide a refund and no record of sale is available, we will ask for personal identification and a return will be provided at current price on a NOVA Mapo gift card. (Gift cards cannot be redeemed for cash unless required by law.)
- Items Returned by Mail: if you ordered by credit card, we’ll credit your account within 14 business days. This will show on your next statement, depending on the issuing bank and/or billing cycle. If you have requested an exchange, your account will be charged for the new item and credited for the return.
- Items Purchased with Gift Cards and NOVA Mapo Notes: if you paid with a gift card, it’s important to keep your original gift card (even with a $0 balance) as generally refunds or returns will be credited to your original gift card(s). If you also paid with a NOVA Mapo Note, we’ll credit it back to your account within 72 hours. If you have questions, contact Customer Care at 1.888.282.6060.

Questions? Contact contact@novamapo.com.
How do I make an international return outside of the U.S.?
International novamapo.com orders made with Borderfree have a different return process and do not qualify for free returns or merchandise exchanges. For a refund that includes duties, taxes and tariffs, please contact NOVA Mapo customer service and ask them to send you a Return Merchandise Authorization form on behalf of Borderfree. Then mail the completed form with your item(s) to Borderfree. If you choose to return an international order directly to NOVA Mapo, you will receive a refund for the merchandise from Borderfree but not duties, taxes or tariffs. Learn more about international returns.
What about returns for purchases at novamapo.com?
Simply send your item back or bring it to a store near you and we’ll do our best to take care of you.
Do I need a receipt from my purchase?
Your receipt or order number helps us locate your purchase the fastest. If you don’t have a receipt, we should be able to find the purchase in other ways, but we may ask you for more information so we can better assist with your request. If no record of sale is available and we choose to provide a refund, your personal identification will be required to process the return and the return is provided at current price on a NOVA Mapo Gift Card.
How do I return items containing potentially hazardous materials?
Please pack, label and ship these items separately, and remember to attach the special label we’ve included to each package. Due to shipping regulations, this is required by USPS.
Do you take everything back?
We’ll do our best to take care of you, but from time to time we cannot accommodate a return.
Is there a time limit? What if the item is worn?
We will do our best to take care of customers and deal with them fairly; we ask that our customers treat us fairly as well. From time to time we may not accept a return. There are no time limits for returns or exchanges.
Why do special-occasion dresses and some designer items have tags that say if the tag is removed the garment cannot be returned?
If customers need to return a special-occasion dress or designer item, we ask that the item be in the same condition as when they received it, with all packaging included and tags still attached. Customers have told us that it’s important to them that the special-occasion dresses and designer items they’re purchasing have not been worn or used prior to their purchase. Over the years, we have also found that we received a disproportionate number of returns that appeared to have been previously worn in these categories, compared to other categories we sell. To meet our customers’ expectations, we implemented a tag or card to help ensure these items are returned in original condition.
Are there restocking fees?
No.
Why does NOVA Mapo request my personal identification for a return without a record of sale?
Because of our liberal return philosophy, we have this internal auditing procedure to give us the ability to monitor and investigate refunds and returns without a record of sale.
Do you take checks?
Checks will no longer be accepted as payment for merchandise. However, checks will continue to be accepted for payment on accounts.
How do you process my return if I paid with PayPal (U.S.)?
If the full amount of your purchase was made with PayPal, your refund will be credited to the same PayPal account. If your PayPal purchase included a NOVA Mapo Note or NOVA Mapo Gift Card, your refund will be credited to your PayPal account in separate amounts. If your return is made in store, you’ll receive your refund in the form of a NOVA Mapo Gift Card.
